Holiday Events In Normandy Park
Summer’s Here And The Pools Are Open
On my morning walk to the beach, I passed the Normandy Park Swim Club and heard the familiar sounds of an early morning swim team practice. Summer officially starts today and in Normandy Park that means the two summer swim clubs are open for business.
Both Olympic View Swim Club and Normandy Park Swim Club offer swim lessons, competitive swim and dive teams and a synchronized swimming program. More importantly, these community clubs are a gathering place for neighborhood picnics, pickle ball games, family BBQ’s, and hours of fun with friends at the pool.
Hurray for the first day of summer! I can’t wait to dive in.

Historic Normandy Park Home For Sale
I’ve always wondered about the stately waterfront English Tudor that sits just North of the Normandy Park Cove Beach. It recently went on the market for sale and today I had the opportunity to tour this home with other Real Estate Brokers in my office and learn about it’s history.
Originally built in 1927 as a community club for Normandy Park, the building sat unused throughout the Great Depression. Eventually it was purchased by well known Seattle Jeweler, Ben Tipp and has since been a private residence to many lucky families. This one acre Puget Sound Waterfront Estate boasts over 6000 sq./ft. of living space, 100 feet of prime low bank waterfront and a helicopter pad “for drop in guests”. According to long time local resident, Randi Boyle, the home even had an in-door basketball court in the 1960’s. The court has since been replaced with a grand-scale pool table room.
Asking price for this historic home: $3,250,000. Call me if you’d like a tour.
